Got offered to buy it back about a year or so ago... and the guy was restoring the car so it'll still be around, whether its finished or on the road at the moment is another question though.

It makes a '91 H-plate that bit rarer Paul, so you're doing your bit mate.

I don't think any of the colours are particularly rare on the S2 RS Turbo at any year, although there's not so many good cars about generally now so any good one is getting rarer.

Now that I've said that though is it my mind playing tricks or did they do a nimbus grey S2 in the early years of them?

Nah, for a few reasons... main one being that I've got too many awesome memories of that car when I owned it all those years ago and I'd run the risk of them being turned to shit when it breaks down all the time etc.

Plus, IF there was another S2 in my garage then I really want a mint 90-spec in White this time round.


Cheers,
Grant
